Co-founded by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in the 1970’s, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) enables us to understand how our brain processes the words we use and how that can effect our programming and behaviour. Engaging various tools and techniques, practitioners support clients with re-programming their neurology, language and actions. Rather than allowing thoughts to be passive, NLP techniques help to look at thoughts, feelings and emotions as things that may be controlled. Techniques can include things such as Imagery Training, NLP Swish, Modelling, Mirroring, and Incantations.

Somatic educators teach people about the connection between the mind, body and movement, focusing on things like somatic processes, body intelligence and awareness, and shadow work. Somatic educators may be trained in various topics such as somatic psychology, nervous system health, somatic therapeutic dance and guided movement, mindfulness and meditation, menstrual cycle awareness, sexual sovereignty, feminine/masculine spirituality, trauma-informed facilitation, embodied leadership, patriarchy, and decolonization. Somatic educators are not trained therapists and must refer clients to qualified healthcare professionals when necessary.
